Using BEST SHOT
8. Point the camera at the
subject you want in the
center of the image and then
half-press the shutter button
to focus.
• The outer blue boundary on
the screen indicates the
recordable range of the image.
9. Press the shutter button the rest of the way
down and slowly move the camera in
accordance with the instructions and arrow that
appear on the monitor screen.
• Holding the camera firmly with both hands, follow
the instructions that appear on the monitor screen to
slowly slide the camera horizontally or vertically at a
constant speed in an arc centered on your body.
– When sliding the camera horizontally, do not allow
your body to move left or right. A vertical line
running through your body should serve as the
axis.
– When sliding the camera vertically, do not allow your body to move upwards
or downwards. A horizontal line between your shoulders should serve as the
axis.
– Take care not to slide the camera diagonally and be sure to maintain a firm
grip on it.
• The camera will start composing the super-wide image internally when the
slide cursor reached the other end of the movement range.
• Image composing also will start automatically if you stop moving the camera
during super-wide shooting. After you stop moving the camera, the message
“Busy... Please wait...” appears as the camera processes the image. Wait until
this message disappears before using the camera. Image shooting is disabled
while the message is displayed.
